8 gb is a possiblity for universal? is nuclear right?

well im sure some of you have read post from this guy. about how he is able to read files from his eight gb sd card in is uni even tho it only says 2 gb on his device. has anyone else gotten one of these supposed magical cards and tried it out? i searched on ebay and it seems to be that only one guy has or sells this specific card . is nuclear advertising for this guy , is he a scammer or is this true and we dont know about it yet. please give input if you have gotten one of these cards and have tested it out.

Even all those 4GB SD-cards are already non-standard and not working in most of the devices. From 4GB upwards they have to be SDHC-cards (SD 2.0) which are not supported by the Universal's reader. Sure, it would be possible to manufacture 8GB SD-cards, but it's very unlikely that they work in a lot of devices since SD was never meant to have more than 2GB.

well i just saw today that a treo that was supposedly not able to support sdhc is now able to because of a firmware update. check engadgetmobile.com if that can be done with a treo why not the universal. if its a software problem im sure there are people in here that are able to help

Sorry about my long post but i am trying to give as much information as i can in one post.
I am requesting ROM builders to start firmware upgrades to support these 4GB and 8GB cards. Windows Crossbow doesnt support 4GB or 8GB SD only cards, instead it reads them and reformats them changing the firmware of the card to 2GB!!!!... I havent tried SDHC yet. Here are pictures of my 4GB Extreme III SanDisk SD only card. I couldnt upload it here so i zipped them and uploaded them to rapidshare. Helmi's AKU 3.5 ROM doesnt read a card formatted using Crossbow... i dont know its just too many details. I cant think. But I just want to let you guys know that you are right so far on your research. Keep the good work up!
http://rapidshare.com/files/8938902/sandisk_tech_support.zip
I emailed sandisk tech support these images. It seems they havent replied yet. Keep a track on all my threads as i keep posting about these cards everywhere.
Trust me its just because i have a lot of money that i am able to get my hands on these things. And i just keep posting my observations. I would even get my hands on the 32GB card if I could bribe the CEO of SanDisk.
It got reformatted to 2GB.. I am unable to make it 4GB again.
My 8GB card as you can see in pictures on ebay is a samsung make. Its also SD only. 8GB SDHC cards are available to be bought. They are a bit slower then normal SD cards and are cheaper too.
32GB cards will be coming soon in SD or SDHC i believe. I read it in news. Like its totally upto you to believe me or not, my information is very helpful to me but i still encounter problems and it seems not even sandisk can help me
Anyways so its a farse that Universal's SD card readers dont support SDHC. And you can file a lawsuit on SanDisk or Samsung for that. They just want you to spend more money into buying a SDHC card reader.... Truly its the ROM.

ok now i know u r full of shyt. u keep popsting that u have this card and it works but i have yet to see ne photos. u just like the attention u get from lieing through ur teeth. thats pretty sad

i dont know about the 8bg but my 4gb is working no probs,
doesnt matter if its empty, only used 900mb, or any amount in between empty or full, screen grab using SPB explorer of my current card status:

oh and to stop arguments there is no reason why nuclear couldnt download the demo of spb explorer then do a screen grab of his mem card section of memory just like i have in previous post!
so erm, as they say "get your cards out for the lads"

this is the card i got, dont know all the bull**** about this format that format, its slower etc, but this is quicker at loading tomtom sat nav up etc than my other card 1gb puremedia sd card, like i said 4gb, no problems http://www.mobymemory.com/proddetail.asp?prod=SD_MOBYMEMORY_4096_001

Daddy k, what's your ROM version info? My 4GB card won't work at all in my Jasjar. I suspect a ROM upgrade will fix this, can you confirm it? Thanks! Cheers,

It works very well for me.

I don't know that I come to the same conclusion after reading the thread in the link. It seems questionable at best since two of the posters specifically said it did not work for them.

SDHC compliant devices work with SDHC cards, SD devices do not.
You may be lucky to get one that you can read from, but an SD device will not write to it without screwing it up.
The Universal is SD not SDHC

Yo thats a SD card not a SDHC lol. in the email you said SDHD...now you say SDHC... lol

this is total bull, i have came to two conclusions after reading all these post.
1 -now it seems like the only person that sells this specific card that nuclear has is fastmemoryman and he is advertising for him. IF that is the case then i tell u guys not to deal with this scammer cause i bought from him before and was sent a 2 gb card disguised as a 4.
2- Nuclear does indead have a 8 gb card from samsung and is able to put his dvd in it but because sd 2.0 IS backward compatible as i have read it from several sites you are able to use only 4 gb of the 8. so he is putting his dvd in the card but only one movie,
those are the only two possible conclusion there is . so if its not number 1 then its number 2

Yup i think its #2 .... goddamn crossbow screwed up my 8GB card!... Alan knows it. Dont call me a scammer alright... first i am helping you and then you call me a scammer.

Don't bring me into this, I only know what you keep telling me, and what you post here.
I have no way of verifying what you say, one minute things work, one minute they don't, one minute you are developing a crossbow rom, the next you have one from another device.
It might be the language barrier, but half the time it sounds like you tell different stories from one thread to the next.

I dont even think Akula would understand what i posted. lol Alan ... i will clarify it again to you. my 8gb card got busted! it doesnt work anymore. crossbow screwed it up. i made crossbow by getting it off another device rom and modifying it! see can I be more clear than that?

4gb SHDC microSD card does NOT work!

I just got a SanDisk 4gb SDHC microSD card, and I can confirm that it does NOT work in my TyTN. The TyTN does not "see" the card in Settings->Memory when the card is inserted.
Unless someone has a reg hack that will make this work, I can now confirm that the 4gb SHDC microSD cards do NOT work with the TyTN.

Have you tried formatting it first with fat32?

It's been known for a long time that the 4GB SDHC cards wouldn't work...
You should be able to sell it on and get a 2GB with the cash you make though easily enough.
I tried one too and found the same thing.. wasn't my card so I didn't mess with it.. but it didn't look like it was ever gonna see it.

It has NOT been known that it doesnt work, we actually needed someone to check with a SDHC........now all i can say is that it is most likely a limitation of WM, atleast that was the impression i got from the guys at HTC.
A bit more experimentation is needed.

Yes, it has been known... the SDHC standard is different from the SD...
The SDHC is not compatible with SD unless the device is specifically designed for it... So legacy devices cannot read it...

ffs......if you read through the threads in here you will notice that there is no ACTUAL proof that the Hermes doesnt support SDHC.........HTC have also stated that it is a limit in the OS and NOT the hardware.
We all know SDHC is different from standard SD, but that is not my point, the post i was replying to said we have known for ages.......which is not correct, we still dont know if a reg-hack will allow the memory limit to be lifted from WM5/6.

I got a 2 year old digital camera. 3 months ago, a new firmware came out for it to add SDHC support.

Oh, sorry I misunderstood your point... ur right... but it's for sure that the current devices, without any modification will not support SDHC...or is there any example on the contrary?

I noticed that a registry key does exist under HKLM/Drivers/BuiltIn/SDHC/
maybe someone can find a tweak to make the card work...

am using one now.. . .

I flashed WM 6 (vp3G's version 3.0) and my 4GB SDHC works just great.

Yeah, lots of the cooked WM6 ROMs include SDHC support. It was indeed only ever a coding issue that wasn't included in native OS. Well done the chefs.
Search the WM6 forum with the term sdhc and support and you'll be able to compile a list of cooked ROMs that do it. Most recent ones do though as far as I'm aware. Pre-cooked, that is - not sure about the DIY ROM kitchens.
If it helps, Black Satin is very recent indeed and has it. I heartily recommend Medium edition. (Was on LE but installed sev of the removed packs anyway). Also Faria's is a personal favourite of mine (SuperClean).

12Gb microSDHC vaporware?

I've seen release dated for this larger 12gb memory card fall back over and over ... and now no retail shops are offering a due date of when this memory is to be released.
Did anyone get their hands on a 12gb card?
Was the 12gb skipped over?
Now I see sandisk announcing the soon to be released 16gb next month (June). Are we going to see the same for the 16gb card?

It was always my understanding that SanDisk had made the 12GB card as a proof of concept that was never intended for retail sale -- just something to demo at trade shows until the 16GB cards were ready.

16gigs ... can't wait

SDHC supports up to 32GB.

Way too funny. You can also hold songs, videos, movies, games, gps maps, programs, not to mention portable pc applications you can use via usb. Of course, you can have loads of porn to (ahem) keep you (and hapy go lucky bystanders, lol) focused until the train arrives. Make sure you have a spare a/c adapter as well. and perhaps the kaiser video driver or update will be a motivating factor to watch/play movies, videos, & games.

According to that mymemory.co.uk link the TyTnII will only address 8Gb. Is that just that they haven't tested it with any bigger cards? HTC quote 8Gb too.

well it is 32, it probably old info

what idiot designed SDHC to only go to 32GB!? We ran into the space problem at 2GB and they thought of only extending it to 32!? We are going to be there VERY soon and wont be able to go over! Whats next? SDSHC (SD Super High Capacity)? I bet they will only extend that to 64GB.

Can't wait for 32Gb - will finally be able to keep all my music in there, synched with my iPod which spends most of its time in the car now.

"It uses the same form factor as SD, but the SD 2.0 standard in SDHC uses a different memory addressing method (sector addressing vs byte addressing), thus theoretically reaching a maximum capacity of up to 2048 GB [2 terabytes]. However the SD Card association have artificially defined the maximum limit of SDHC capacity to 32 GB. "

Who is to say that 32 GB can't or won't be surpassed in the SDHC format?

32GB SD card issue w/2.3.3 resolved

I recently upgraded my phone to 2.3.3 from 2.1.
After upgrading, my phone no longer detected my 32GB SD.
I spent a lot of time researching the issue and found that most people just went to a smaller card like I did.
I went out and bought a 4GB card.
After loading my phone up with apps and audio and images, 4GB was not enough.
So, here is how I resolved this...
I downloaded HPUSBDisk.exe which is an HP USB format tool.
Copied the content of my 4gb micro to my PC/Laptop.
I inserted my 32GB micro SD into a "micro sd USB adapter"...
Format the SD using the HP USB format tool (FAT).
Copy the contents from the 4GB to the 32GB.
When I placed the 32GB into the phone and powered it up it was now recognized.

weird, I own a 16GB card and never had problems with 2.3.3
actually never heard about this problem until today

16 GB are not really a issue.

I use a 32gb from Kingston and have no issues. ??? Think maybe it's not the memory size that is the problem. Maybe it got corrupted? I had that problem on a smaller card on a round of back to stock while playing around with ROMs and such. Formatted it on PC and all was fine... think it was 8? Was a while a go. But I've heard of it happening while updating, read about it after I had the issue with the card that came with my x10.

Yes but quite a few cards seem to have bad compatibility.

I'm curious if it's a certain class of cards that cause issues, or if it's certain vendors or brands? Do certain brands format them different and that causes the issue?
I researched what class was supported and bought a brand name (Kingston) that isn't high end but from a reputable business so I knew it wasn't fake. Bought a 32gb class 4 Kingston from Tiger Direct, popped it in and it worked fine. I put it in and tried it before transferring data to it.
I'm definitely not discounting the issue, but finding out WHY the issue is there is what I'm curious about.

i heard SDHC work the best but i'm idk the difference really, all i care about is the memory on the card

Having a similar problem!
Hi, I've been having a problem with mi 8GB SD card, the thing is that I just Upgraded my X10 to 2.3.3, but it's not detecting the micro SD, it was working fine till I did the upgrade, so I took the card and plug it into the PC, it is working, then I tried changing the fortmat, didn't work either, so I changed it back to Android 2.1 and It got it working again, I tried one more time to upgrade to Android 2.3.3 and the problem persists, all the apps and features are working just fine, but the phone it's kinda useless without the microSD...
Anyone that knows what the problem might be, please reply, cuase it's very frustrating!!

The stock 8GB card in my x10 died quite fast.
They get scratched underneath easily.

Hate to bump up an old-ish thread. But I came across the following article and the pertinent quote from it is "We tested this card on some phones including Motorola Razr and Samsung Galaxy S2 and even on a year old Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 and it works fine"
So it looks like this old dog was still able to use a 64GB micro sdxc card.
But at 110$ USD (cheapest I've found so far)... might not be worth it yet.

I'm really not certain about this, but their a limit on the size SD card our hd2's can support. (Either 16 or 32gb which is what I'm uncertain of) try formatting your new SD card into two 16 gb partitions and then see what happens.
Hopefully either that helps or someone with more knowledge than I will comment and give you a better answer

Well the limit is definitely not 16gb because I have one of those and it works fine in Android but it for some reason cannot boot SD Android. Also, if I'm not mistaken MarkAtHome (I've seen him in many of the NAND threads, especially NexusHD2) has a 64GB SDXC card as he was posting something about that a while ago. He'd have to confirm though.

Where did you get your memory card?? You son are a victim of false advertisement. I purposely purchased a "cheap" 16GB sd card from ebay and it wasnt even bigger than like 300MB. There are ways to fake the memory size, and thats why when you try to put the music on your card is says its not there because there truly isnt any physical memory available. And also why it gives those weird readouts. Sorry to bust the news :/

According to HTC's website, the HD2 can support up to a 32GB SDHC (class 10 i believe)

Yes. You set up two partitions 32 gb each.

There have been threads discussing how certain sd cards do not perform well in android devices, including the HD2. It has to do with some of the access times the cards are rated at.
I have tested a 32gb patriot class 10 card in the HD2 and samsung vibrant that made both phones freeze and run terribly slow until the card was removed.
Sandisk cards run flawlessly in the HD2 and I have only been using them for the past year, including a 32gb and a 64gb SDXC. The 64gb must be formatted as fat32 inside the phone before it can be used, but the full 64gb is available.

I agree with elesbb. Infact the same thing had happened to me about 4 years ago. What they do it put a memory hack in the SD card fooling it to think there is more memory. I would say if you bought it from ebay contact the seller first and
tell them you think it might be fake and you wish to get a real card asap. If they don't send you one or sound like they may be un-willing to then you should report them. Here's some information found on ebay's site about fake memory cards.
If you bought it from a different online seller you should still contact them about it and say you did some research and believe you recieved a counterfit item. In the link i shared above there are a few examples of how to spot fake cards including some pictures if you go through the links. I've read somewhere that if you have a sandisk and the class rating is in the corner then you more then likly have a counterfit one. Sandisk's class ratings should be centered in the middle of the SD card.

Okay, i've just sent email to him, hopefully he will just re-send me new, (working..?) or give money back!
